Rails - Dec 2005 - assert_generates and catch-all routes

I have a catch all route.

map.connect ''people/*args'', :controller =>
''people'', :action =>
''default_action''

I can test this one way, with assert_recognizes.

expected_options = { :controller => ''people'', :action =>
''default_action'', :args => [''made_up''] }
assert_recognizes expected_options, ''people/made_up''

I''m wondering why I cannot test the other way, using assert_generates?

options_for_url = { :controller => ''people'' }
assert_generates ''people/default_action'', options_for_url

The above fails with "ActionController::RoutingError: No url can be 
generated for the hash".

I assume I am missing something in my understanding of routing.  If 
anyone can enlighten me that''d be grand.

Cheers,

Chris
